Un Noël à sauver

I love Chad Michael Murray. I really do. But I gotta say, I watched this movie till the end only because of him. If there was some other actor, I would have turned it off within first 30 minutes. The story is so so, but the lead actress... Very bad acting, wooden, no emotions and there was no depth. CMM tried his best, but there was no mutual chemistry what so ever. It was like acting with a wall. I don't think the pairing of lead actors was good and I think, she needs some acting lessons as well. As a watcher I wasn't invested in the story at all, because the lead female failed to make an emotion connection with the audience. Just bad acting, unfortunately and not very interesting script.

It's a one in a million Christmas movie with mediocre acting. Usually I enjoy these types of movies on a lazy Sunday afternoon, but as a Dutch person, this one is annoying me a lot.

The lack of research for this movie is honestly impressive. They're saying literally all the Dutch words wrong (except oma), they're even making up Dutch words, the details about traditions don't make any sense and the 'traditional' outfit the girl is wearing, is more a 'German Heidi' outfit, not a Dutch one.. there's just really nothing Dutch about this movie.

If you're not willing to do the research, just make a movie about something you have knowledge off.

Chad Michael Murray is always good, but there must be chemistry between him and his leading lady and in this case there wasn't any. I believe that Christa Taylor Brown was a miscast for this movie. Her style and his style are too much alike. They are both blonde and she is very soft spoken and so is he, so together they were so boring to watch. It was like they were brother and sister instead of potential love interests. It was a very hard movie to finish.

The story itself has been done so many times before that within 10 minutes I knew exactly how the wind mill would be saved and the only reason I kept watching was because of Chad Michael Murray. I will always watch a movie with him even if it's not good because of a miscast.

Finished this movie because of Chad Michael Murray.

What is wrong with the way the lead actress talks? Its like she is reading a book to let someone go to sleep, and zero emotions. I dont if its her voice or the way she talks. Did not feel any chemistry between the two lead actors. I watched Chad Michael Murray's other movies but never felt this off with the other lead actresses. Looks so forced. Do they not do a trail run before filming? And the plotline is so basic. Even a kid can guess the plotline and the ending. And this movie made me never want to watch another movie of the lead actress.

Decent plot but honestly the only reason I watched the whole movie was because I love Chad Michael Murray but it was truly a struggle to watch the entire movie. Christa Taylor Brown brings nothing to the screen and comes across with very little warmth. Chad is able to create a spark in just about any movie he is in but even he was not able to bring out anything in his leading lady.

The other characters helped to liven up the movie but unfortunately so much of the footage concentrated on Christa that I was glad when it was finally over. I will continue to look for other Chad Michael Murray movies and only hope he doesn't team up with Christa again.
